Dependable, versatile shoulder milling concept
Cutting tool specialist Sandvik Coromant has introduced the CoroMill MS20, a true 90-degree shoulder milling solution. Designed for roughing to finishing in stainless steel and heat-resistant super alloys (HRSAs), it ensures uncompromised security, versatility and productivity.
“CoroMill MS20 is our new first-choice, single-sided, two-edge solution for true 90-degree shoulder milling applications in ISO M and ISO S materials, especially for the aerospace and oil and gas industries,” said Sangram Dash, global product application specialist for indexable milling tools at Sandvik Coromant. “Being versatile, CoroMill MS20 excels in repeated shoulder milling, face milling, linear and helical ramping, full slotting, and plunging applications.”
One of the standout features of CoroMill MS20 is the optimized geometries tailored for different ISO materials, ensuring higher edge line security. “Users will first notice the reliability of the CoroMill MS20 inserts, which exhibit a predictable and gradual wear pattern on the cutting edge, even in demanding applications,” said Dash. “It is an exceptionally secure concept, allowing for higher productivity.”
Premium assortment, premium results
The combination of high-quality cutter bodies and inserts ensures excellent surface finish and optimal wall quality — without any steps — in repeated shoulder milling applications.
The robust cutter body boasts high levels of dimensional control, closely matching the nominal diameter with tighter tolerances on axial and radial runout. This results in improved component quality, fewer rejections and extended insert tool life.
Manufactured using a new pressing technology, the inserts offer superior dimensional accuracy, further enhancing component quality and insert tool life. The high accuracy of the direct-pressed CoroMill MS20 insert enables it to replace periphery ground geometries with similar performance.
“You shouldn’t have to compromise when it comes to shoulder milling,” said Dash. “Whether you prioritize secure and trouble-free machining, high productivity or increased cost efficiency, the new CoroMill MS20 shoulder milling concept has you covered.”
The assortment encompasses cutter bodies in the range of 15.8 to 84 mm with inch equivalent cutters, along with inserts featuring optimized geometries for stainless steel and HRSA applications.
